Effects of dietary fat on appetite and energy intake in health and obesity – oral and gastrointestinal sensory contributions

利特尔博士因其与肠道中营养物质感知相关的研究而享有国际声誉。在接下来的4年里，她的目标是成为一名独立的研究人员，领导一个团队和项目，专注于表征脂肪在肠道中被感知的分子和生理机制，以及这些机制在健康和肥胖中的能量摄入调节中的作用。这些见解可能会导致更有效的肥胖管理策略。

Dr Little has an international reputation for her research relating to the sensing of nutrients in the gut. During the next 4 years her goal is to establish herself as an independent researcher leading a team and program focussed on characterising the molecular and physiological mechanisms by which fat is sensed in the gut, and the role of these mechanisms in energy intake regulation in health and obesity. These insights are likely to result in more effective management strategies for obesity.
